V6 engines must not dictate form

Force India team representative Bob Fernley is aware of the work of their team, which has progressed nicely in recent years and even came in the top seven. Nevertheless, the year 2014 could also mean work for them again, as new generators are coming in 2014, which will more than obviously turn everything upside down. Bob warns that no one wants too much difference on the starting line: "Formula One will obviously be very dependent on engines in the coming season, as it is unlikely that we will get such very similar units again as we have now." Of course, Fernley He points out that motor suppliers want greater differences, so that they can draw more attention to themselves: “Motor constructors want dominance for each of them, as they also invest a lot of money in the development itself. However, again, engines should not be the deciding fact

formula 1

Also in the 2014 season, we will watch or hear the race cars of the Force Indie team with Mercedes engines, as they extended their cooperation today.

Will Force India be even better in Malaysia?

formula 1

Paul di Resta, Force India racer estimates that higher air temperatures and tracks will suit his VJM06 race car better. The Scot is confident that the Melbourne achievement can still be repaired. “I think the warm weather will suit our race car,” di Resta explained. "We've been very solid in Malaysia over the last few years, so I think we have good reason to be optimistic. We still have a few things to fix, but we started this season well. We've shown that we can also race with a stop less than some of our competitors, and now we’re wondering if that’s going to be the case in Malaysia as well, ”said di Resta after teaming up with teammates Adrian Sutil with seventh and eighth place in Australia, serving the team with the best start to the season so far.

Sutil predicts even more after a great Australia

formula 1

Adrian sutil believes that the start of this season is not just a "one-day fly" for him, as he predicts even better results in the future. The Force India team started the race in Albert Park more than excellently, but later fell far behind on softer tires. Still, the comeback for the German, who hadn’t raced in F1 for a year due to a nightclub incident in 2011, was more than excellent: “I believe I can still improve a lot, but it still didn’t take me long to get back in shape as is usually the case with racers. "In any case, Sutil still has to get used to the speed and racing, from which he was absent for quite some time:" Especially in the rain I was not fast and confident enough, because then you really have to be one with the car. I’ve been so much better on dry land, but I believe I can from m

Sutil to the defense to the commissioners

formula 1

Adrian Sutil had to report to the commissioners after the third free practice. Charlie Whiting issued a notice to the teams before the last practice session that the race management could not disable the DRS’s moving rear wing on race cars due to technical problems, as is the case in constant practice when yellow flags or rain occurs, as previously reported. Sometime in the middle of the free practice, it started to rain in Melbourne, and the race management informed the teams and the racers that the use of DRS was not allowed. But because they could not disable the use of the wing due to technical problems, it was up to the racers not to use the system at the time. Sutil activated the wings in the last minutes of training, so he deserved a conversation with the commissioners. They ultimately did not opt for a penalty as the Force Indie team

Sutil is the right choice for Force Indio

formula 1

The boss of Vijay Mallya has no doubts about Adriana Sutila, as he is the right choice for the team. The German racer "paused" for a year, but just before this season he got a seat instead of Jules Bianchi. Despite the fact that Sutil has not driven a Formula One car for a year, Mallya says of him: “I am very pleased with our racing team, especially with Sutil, who is coming back. Over the winter, it took quite a while for us to decide on it, but I’m sure the right decision was made. I have to say that Adrian is a very fast racer, with a great racing history, and he has been with us from the very beginning, so he is really a member of the family. ”Vijay added that Sutil was very fast right away, but then added that they will have to work hard if they want to repeat the successes from
